Responding to Untrusted VPN Server Notifications

The type of Untrusted VPN Server notification displayed depends on the Block Untrusted VPN Server application preference:

• If enabled, a blocking Untrusted VPN Server! notification displays, choose:

  • Keep Me Safe to keep this setting and this blocking behavior.
  • Change Settings to turn off blocking. After changing the Block Untrusted VPN Server, re-initiate the VPN connection.
• If not enabled, a nonblocking Untrusted VPN Server! notification displays, choose:
  • Cancel to abort the VPN connection to the untrusted server.
  • Continue to make the connection to the untrusted server; this option is not recommended.
  • View Details to view certificate details and decide whether to import the server certificate into the AnyConnect certificate store for future acceptance and continue the connection.

Responding to “Another application has requested that AnyConnect . . . do you want to allow this?”

To protect your device, AnyConnect alerts you when an external application attempts to add a connection entry, establish or disconnect a VPN connection, or import profiles, certificates, or localization files. Ask your administrator whether to tap Yes in response to the following prompts:

• Another application has requested that AnyConnect create a new connection to host. Do you want to allow this? [Yes | No]
• Another application has requested that AnyConnect connect to host. Do you want to allow this? [Yes | No]
• Another application has requested that AnyConnect disconnect the current connection. Do you want to allow this? [Yes | No]
• Another application has requested that AnyConnect import a certificate bundle to the AnyConnect certificate store. Do you want to allow this? [Yes | No]
• Another application has requested that AnyConnect import localization files. Do you want to allow this? [Yes | No]
• Another application has requested that AnyConnect import profiles. Do you want to allow this? [Yes | No]
